I got suckered into buying a Premium Pack because I NEEDED Captain Marvel!Ms. Marvel. I haven't had a looot of time to play but it's great so far :)

Glad you’re enjoying Ms. Marvel! I’m new to the universe, so feel free to tell me anything and everything that made her imperative to you.

Also, the game itself is fun. Really fun. The core game is an absolute blast and I plan to play more. Just… not pay more.

Special Offer! 

You can own the entire cast of The Avengers (minus Hawkeye and Black Widow) in the new game Marvel Heroes and the costumes they wore in the movie for only $85!

Stare into the worst of the internet. It is here. It is all here.

Trigger Warning everything.

REAL Lesbians React to Lesbian Porn!

I'm laughing so hard oh my god

This is the easiest way to persuade straight cis men that they are privileged  in my experience— all porn in marketed to them. All of it. All the time.

"Please, stop talking": A Masterpost.

A collection of quotes from men in the reboot Star Trek creative team, that will most likely make you cringe. Involves massive spoilers. Covers the "I didn't even like Star Trek" mentality, sexism, lying to the media and casting. Add more as you see fit.

justyouraveragesupernerd said: Well, there goes any chance of me playing it

It frustrates me a lot to see it. Scarlet Witch, Storm, and Daredevil are still absolutely free. I feel like I lucked out. The only character I would have felt driven to pay for is one of the only free ones. :-P

zwanguy said: the fact that there's 85 dollar DLC on Steam for it….I'm gonna play the free stuff and be done with it.

 Isn’t it absolute absurdity!? And there’s nothing compelling about any of it. There’s no reason to buy one item and think “Well, surely I need this one now.” So I guess their response to the lack of interesting is to make sure every single item gouges you.

Want an unpopular skin for an extremely unpopular character? That’ll be $10. Want a relevant skin for Iron Man? Pulls out application forms . Would you mind filling out a credit check…?

True Story: When I enjoy a Free 2 Play game, I try to make at least one purchase the moment I realize I’m liking it. Just a sort of “Thank you for being fun” thing. I opened and closed the Cash Shop five times last night, each time convinced I had read something wrong and it wasn’t that poorly constructed.

Yeesh.

The Marvel Heroes cash shop is the worst I’ve seen in a long, long time by a wide, wide margin.

I believe Gavroche made off with my gun.  But I'm sure Head Security Officer Javert remembers how good my swing is…

WHY DID YOU GIVE MY BROTHER A GUN?

Oh my god, Eponine, you can't just ask someone why they gave someone else a gun in the middle of a rebellion.

Switching to Marvel from DC.

This is a big and important thing and I expect you all to keep up to date on it.

Thank you.

Oh my fuck

The Daily Show’s Game of Thrones reference was the greatest of all things.

Hardest I’ve laughed in ages.

Still turning over Dinner Date in my head.

It confuses my hipster/indie gamer side.

Because it is extremely good at being exactly what it is and effecting the exact emotions it wants… but I still don’t like it.

Hm.

Wait, Dinner Date won an Award!?

Let’s see the description:

At the Independent Game Festival 2011, „Dinner Date" has been nominated for the Nuovo award, an award which 'honors abstract, shortform, and unconventional game development which advances the medium and the way we think about games.'

… I’m going to go ahead and call this the “This is so weird we have to call it art, now please go away” award.

Dinner Date

I’ve dug deep. I am truly in the depths of “More art than game”. I thought I had hit the wall with The Path. No… Dinner Date and 30 Flights of Lovin’ aim for that title.

Games that aren’t “games” as much as they are stories that can only be told effectively in interactive media.

Such an odd bird, but I never thought I’d say a game “Isn’t worth $3”. But it’s not.

Jezebel.com and Roseanne Barr are going head to head because they both feel that the other one has a backwards, fucked up version of feminism.

On a completely (I swear!1!) unrelated note, I’m going to go read John Godfrey Saxe’s “The Blind Men and the Elephant” and eat popcorn.
